Gem Atkinson let out a light 'tsk' and said, "What do I have to be afraid of?"
At this, everyone present was stunned, including Nathan Mamet.
Based on his investigations of Gem Atkinson, this man was a rare talent among the younger generation, and Nathan had long favored him as a potential son-in-law. If it were not for the rumors that Gem Atkinson and Forsythia Brown were remarrying, he would have facilitated the marriage with his daughter much earlier. Even if he could not become his son-in-law, Nathan intended to pull him in as a close aide.
But today, Gem Atkinson appeared different from the rumors. Reports said Gem was tough, calm, bold, daring, and willing to take risks, with a blend of manners and wisdom. However, the Gem Atkinson he encountered today was reticent, repeatedly uttering only a few simplistic sentences and behaving like a spoiled young master in front of Mr. Len and Daniel Atkinson. His reckless talking had nearly sent Mr. Len into fits of rage several times.
